Thanks for sharing your adventure with us Arty!
Do you have any stats on your total trip? Think I
recall you or Doug saying you had flown around 1300
miles in 5 days when you were at MV so I was curious
if you had any info on total trip days, flight
hours, miles traveled, fuel burned, etc. Pretty
impressive cross country trip in a 447 and 503 on
any type of plane! Sharing that might help others
here venture out further with their low end Kolbs.
Glad to see you here!

Wow, you averaged 58 mph on the trip, which is darned good, considering all the wind conditions encountered in 2 weeks of flying.
Quite a x-c trip!! Thanks again!
